Today was my beagles birthday. Unaware that I needed to celebrate a dog birthday, I was reminded by a co-worker who had gotten a dog from the same litter that indeed today was my own dogs birthday. Birthday or no- he is still the coolest dog.

I had the fortunate pleasure of attending a friends wedding this last weekend. As happy as I was to attend on his behalf- I still hate the damn things. To top it off I attended with an ex- yeah since we are all friends we were all invited. The kicker- a large percent of the friends are unaware that there is an EX situation. So on more than one occation I overheard myself being refered to in a NON-EX form. This left me sitting there wondering why wedding parties don't offer cyanide punch and the trick or treat dish of horse tranquilizers for those of us who must endure these functions for the good of friendship. Please no one get married for a while, I need time to recover.
